How to Change Parameters in eSignal

Changing parameters in your indicator/study

If you need to change a parameter in the eSignal indicator that you're using
then it is fairly straight forward.

Load the indicator (study) into an advanced chart.

Right click on the advanced chart and from the menu select:
Edit
Studies...

You will be presented with a Studies Properties dialog box. Click
the Study drop-down in the top left corner of this dialog and select the
study you want to change the parameters for.

In the Studies Properties dialog you will now see a
Formula
Parameters
section. Change the Value of the parameter to what you
want it to be. The Default value is shown on the right if you ever want
to change the parameter back to the original (default) value. (You may need to
scroll down the parameter list to see all the parameters - there is a bug with
the scroll feature - read more about this below.)

Click OK when you're done and the new settings will take place and
the study will be reloaded with the new settings.

If you don't see the parameter that you need/want to change:

Please note the following bug that is present in all versions of eSignal that
we are aware of. We will post more information if this bug is resolved and which
version of eSignal resolves it. It is only an inconvenience and does not affect
the functionality of eSignal or the indicator.

If the study has more parameters than can fit in the
Formula Parameters
area then the first time that you edit the study's parameters you will see a
scrollbar on the right hand side so that you can scroll down and edit the other
parameters.

It is possible that on subsequent attempts to edit the parameters for a study
that the scroll bar is missing. The image below shows the same parameter list
twice. The top image shows the scrollbar present and the second one shows it
missing.

If the scrollbar is missing then there are two ways that you can scroll down
to see the other parameters.

First of all click on a label on the left hand side of the parameter list:
For example click on Tick Size in this window.

Now use the down arrow key on your keyboard or use the mouse wheel to scroll
the window down.

We hope that this resolves the problem if you come across it. If not, or you
encounter other problems, then please request help in
our support forum.
